I decorated the mantel and front window. I only got around to taking a few photos of what is on the mantel. I’m not quite finished my sofa table. The tree in up but not decorated.
The manger scene was my grandfather’s and I haven’t put it up for a while. Thought I would as I’m more into vintage pieces and it’s safe up there on the mantel. I repaired and painted this before I was married, so it’s still holding up after I did that about 26 or so years later.

That looks so pretty. Your manager scene is a real family treasure…each character is so nicely detailed. I first noticed those berry lights, which are a nice addition and change from regular white l ights.
Bring on the tree!
Oh my goodness Dianne, that is just beautiful! I love that Manger Scene and your mantle is just beautiful!
Wonderful decorations, Dianne!!
I just love the giant jingle bells! I have no mantel to display my collection of Santas, hence they are scattered about the house in nooks and crannies, but I love your nutcracker display. My sister collects those as well. 🙂
It all looks gorgeous!
